Reason One: It's unexpected

Jiraiya dying was a huge shock to fans. People speculated on NB that he was still alive for over a year and a half. Like all the other times I posted on my old account, what happened? He stayed dead. Naruto's death will shake the foundation of the Narutoverse, save Sasuke and defeat the 10 tails. Naruto living and becoming Hokage as a child is simply unrealistic. Kishi is showing us what war is.

Reason Two: It saves Sasuke


We've known forever Kishi's favorite character is Sasuke. His death isn't really likely. While he will lose to Naruto in the fight, it might very well end with Naruto pulling out RDS to extract Sasuke's evil chakra. Sasuke must be redeemed, this is the easiest way.

Reason Three: The prophecy doesn't mention that he lives or dies


Notice the prophecy doesn't say he becomes Hokage? This is a huge reveal. It only mentions that he fights a kid with strange eyes after saving the world. This is important, as it implies he dies fighting Sasuke.

Reason Four: It's being foreshadowed


Kishi likely decided to kill Naruto during Five Kage summit arc. Naruto himself foreshadowed his own death by saying he's willing to die to save Sasuke.

Reason Five: It's heroic to die


The most impact Naruto can have is in death. Being the hero who saved the world through sacrificing his own life. It's too non-impacting to declare him Hokage and end the manga. It's what people expect.

Reason Six: It's poetic


If his death mirrors his father's death, he's all the more a hero. He became Hokage and then died, just like his father. Following Kishimoto's words, it's not like anyone has plot armor at the end of a story.

Reason Seven: It's a troll ending


Kishi likes to troll us sometimes by throwing curveballs. Anyone foreshadow Neji's death? Itachi being good? Jiraiya losing to pain? Yeah, thats what I thought. So far it's NB batting 0 for 3.

Reason Eight: It's a Japanese manga


American fans can never accept manga endings from Japan. When GANTZ anime ended, I remember how pissed people were. When Spike died, I remember the shock on people's faces. When Lelouch died at the end of Code Geass, people were shocked. Yu Yu Hakusho, main characters dead. Death Note, main character dies. Evangelion, everyone dies. Huge troll ending. Hellsing. Sailor Moon. I could go on, but it's not needed.

The facts are on my side, NB. I rest my case. Naruto will die. You mad, fanboys?

Another one really no matter how much you hate it the series is called Naruto not Sasuke...

Naruto is the character people most look up to in the series so I don't think Kishi will have Naruto go all the way through his hard work then die....sends out the wrong message.

Naruto isn't likely to die saving Sasuke so Sasuke can be redeemed as it doesn't make sense, if anything Sasuke will sacrifice his own life saving Naruto that will redeem him.

Believe it or not just because Sasuke is Kishi's favorite character it doesn't mean he's going to change the entire plot just so Sasuke can be the main character.

See the thread "Sasuke is Kishimoto's favorite character" it links to an interview where he calls Sasuke a main character.
His favorite chracter to draw. Yeah Sasuke is a main character as a villian, just like Obito is a main chracter. You can't change the manga, Naruto is the hero.

See that's a realistic answer, NBers. Sasuke would indeed die. Or the evil part of him at least. My money is that the next Hokage is Kakashi, after Naruto and Sakura are dead.
Lol your just making deaths up...it's ridiculous the only person that's likely to die now is Sasuke...

See the spoiler: Manga's ending. That's how manga works, someday it ends and gets replaced with something else. Naruto can become Hokage after his death, with Sasuke as 7th Hokage.
Sasuke will never become the Hokage...he betrayed the village no one will be able to trust him, Naruto will be the 6th Hokage and Konohamaru will be the 7th...
